Default android auto...

If Hyundai can retro-flash to android auto, there is still hope we might be able to upgrade too.... And carplay for the apple crowd.

Android Auto is already working with A3/S3 MMI system, since there were couple working demo before.

It's only matter if Audi even bother to put it in, which I highly doubt they will for their existing line up.

Their MMI system is pretty crap compare to others IMO...... Except that hand writing dial...

I'm curious where the entry point will be into AA from the existing MMI system. Presumably both will be available. I assume another option on the "home" menu.

I hope they give us android auto in our 2015s, but my hunch is that they won't

I saw the demo and honestly think it will be worse than what you're expecting.

I wish Audi would instead focus on expanding Audi Connect to include built-in services such Remote Auto-door unlock / lock , Remote start/stop functions commonly found on a lot of car services in 2015 going back to the mid 2000s. Yet these features you can find in a Hyundai Bluelink $20k car, or OnStar for any GM/Cadillac/Buick vehicle is absent in VW/Audi. Or is it just Audi? because I haven't researched Volkswagen and I'd be surprised if they had features Audi doesn't.
